Sad news that muscle milk team, who ran the beautiful sounding lola aston martin in the alms and have a entry to le mans have decided to switch to a Honda Performance Development ARX-03a for the next season.
So, as the title says who will bring some noise in 2012? Corvette is the only one im guessing.

The Toyota has potential to sound good!

Possibly 3 HPD cars blasting round Le Mans this year, they arent going to sound rubbish so there should be plenty of noise !

Noise, oh you mean the car noise, right? I thought you mean't that hooter thingy those german blokes had. It was a car hooter, and claxon, built into a beer crate. They used a small air compressor, and the power was from a moped battery. Funny thing. They were heard all around the track, and made it sound each time one of them Porsches passed.

I'm investigating to make my own. Mine will be a deluxe version perhaps with jingles, and MPEG 3 sound bits. There is the football to think about too.

Dambusters and the Great Escape are requirements for any hooter/claxon device.
